A man has sparked online discussion by asserting that men should understand women’s emotional and physical needs.

Claiming awareness of women’s cycles

The man claimed that he can tell when a woman is menstruating or ovulating, and that this awareness stems from close attention and understanding.

“I know when a lady is menstruating or ovulating except you’re not in my space. You cannot hide it. Whether you’re in pain or you’re not in pain, I know when a lady wants to be pampered. I repeat, except you’re not in my space.”

He chastised women who complain that their partners do not notice their needs, claiming that the problem is often a man’s lack of attention or “education” on women.

Understanding and security are key

He emphasized that understanding a woman requires emotional, psychological, spiritual, physical, and financial balance, and that providing security is essential in a relationship.

“As a man, you’re supposed to study a woman and know who a woman is first, like understand the basics of a woman. I’m emotionally balanced. I’m psychologically balanced. I’m spiritually balanced. I’m physically balanced and financially balanced. What is it that a woman needs? A woman needs security. I know how to secure my woman.”

He added that the modern narrative of independence is often overstated.

“Most women forget all these once they are saying, ‘I want to be an independent woman, I want work.’ It’s a lie. Most women don’t want to do anything. They want to lie down and they want breakfast in bed,” he concluded.
